Chapter 98

After waking up, Doris realized some things were missing at home, so she made a trip to the supermarket

The supermarket was in the basement, the first floor sold cosmetics, the second floor had dothing, and the third Box

featured furniture.

She found it inconvenient not having a vanity table in her room. With no place to store her skincare and makeup profes she had to use the restroom outside whenever she wanted to put on makeup

“Got it.” Lewis hung up and followed the signs toward the toiletries aisle.
